The resident cat was on the prowl tonight:

Why did this young buck choose these seeds?

Robin was in long before anyone else, as most often:

White Stork strode thru but turned its back after this shot - still rather fuzzy as it's only 06:37:

Heron and angel-winged goose:

There that tongue again!

Please tell me this is an Egret:

Long-tailed Tits filmed by John Walters, nest-building in south Devon.

Leo & Lotte, European Eagle Owls

If she hasn't laid already, she's due to soon - don't have volume toooo high, some shouting occurs - it was nearly a minute out of sync and still isn't perfect:

Your're not kidding !! She is in fine voice - had my volume too high to start and I jumped out of my skin bless her !!!!
Thank you Scylla

She did indeed lay her first egg last night.  Here are the laying performances before/after, and Leo comes to check when she takes a break.  But I could hardly spot the egg.

Final ©Rescue Station MAKOV post - and the honour goes to...

Western Meadowlark still forages on the ground daily.

Aha, sweet little mouse. And congrats to Lotte . Thank you Scylla
